2024 Kanta Riesling
Wonderfully intense and mouth watering with plentiful textural volume counterpointed by shimmering acidity.
Kanta Riesling by Egon Müller is a unique winemaking partnership where German tradition and precision meets the premium, cool climate fruit from the Adelaide Hills. Fruit is sourced from the Argyle Vineyard, a high altitude Adelaide Hills site that sits over 400m above sea level and is flecked with traces of iron stone. Rejuvenated in 1999, the original plantings date back to the 1840’s making them some of the oldest vines in South Australia.
Brilliant very pale straw colour with green tinted edges and a watery hue. Nosing offers up aromas of red apple skin, lime and honeysuckle with some orange blossom and flinty mineral notes also evident. Wonderfully intense the palate features mouth watering lime, red apple, pear and citrus fruits which carry plentiful textural volume. Shimmering acidity with orange and flinty mineral elements the undercard. Superb drive finishing long, dry and scrumptious.
Drink over the next 6-8 years.
